Mt. Tabor...our last outing in Israel!
I love Medieval style architecture like this city gate built in the 11th century
You would think in a tiny country like Israel we would have done it all and be bored by now ! Well... There are plenty of places we didn't make it to and today was our last outing .
What is it that they always say ...Save something for next time : )
I picked the boys up at Daniel's after their long weekend away. Since we were in the Galilee we visited the Church of the Franciscan on the top of Mt . Tabor...Where according to Christian tradition, is the site of the Transfiguration of Christ, during which Jesus began to radiate light and was seen conversing with Moses and Elijah. I am a fan of the New Testament and I have really enjoyed these places. This mountain has a long biblical history and is mentioned in the Old Testament as well. Like most of the ancient cities in Israel... The city on Mt. Tabor has been conquered and destroyed and rebuilt several times ...
Israel ... Always an architectural Kaleidoscope...
Mason and me inside the Ruins of the 4th century byzantine church
Now time to clean and pack (oh the joys of moving) And hopefully visit our favorite beach one more time.

G.H.REES Second most urgent message of planet security

Indeed, Israel is rich in good architectural arts, and that's one of the many reasons why many tourists visit the Holy Land every year. Regardless of religious background, Israel is a central place for religious pilgrimage and tours. For those who'd like to spend their vacation there, they can find a lot of affordable Israel tours (Christian). They can check online for availabilities of these tours.
Last year, our family had a vacation trip to Nazareth. We booked one of those affordable Israel family tours early, just to avoid any unforeseen delays. Thank you so much for sharing your experience!
